great advice... thanks! I forgot I installed some fonts and . The loopback
device and DNS all work nicely, so that was not the issue.
so:
smartass:/# fc-cache --verbose --force
fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts": caching, 0 fonts, 2 dirs
fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts/type1": caching, 0 fonts, 1 dirs
fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts/type1/gsfonts": caching, 35 fonts, 0 dirs
fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts/afms": caching, 0 fonts, 1 dirs
fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts/afms/adobe": caching, 0 fonts, 0 dirs
fc-cache: "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1": caching, 147 fonts, 0 dirs
fc-cache: "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs": caching, 0 fonts, 2
dirs
fc-cache: "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/TrueType": caching, 0
fonts, 0 dirs
fc-cache: "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs/CID": caching, 0 fonts,
0 dirs
fc-cache: "/root/.fonts": skipping, no such directory
fc-cache: succeeded
didn't help, but:
lsa@smartass:~$ fc-cache --verbose
fc-cache: "/usr/share/fonts": skipping, no write access
fc-cache: "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1": skipping, no write access
fc-cache: "/var/lib/defoma/x-ttcidfont-conf.d/dirs": skipping, no write
access
fc-cache: "/home/lsa/.fonts": skipping, no such directory
fc-cache: "/home/lsa/.kde/share/fonts/TrueType/": caching, 1184 fonts, 0
dirs
fc-cache: "/home/lsa/.kde/share/fonts/Type1/": caching, 1023 fonts, 0 dirs
fc-cache: succeeded
did a great job, as I used KDE's font installer to install the fonts.
Although I changed to superuser while installing, obviously the font
installer did not rebuild the cache... Or does every and each user have to
rebuild their own cache?
Thanks again!
Mark
